I wasn't at all good at checking in with progress but I did achieve 17/15 NSDs for the month including 3 lots of 3 in a row
Well done to everyone and thanks for all the hard work in keeping this site updated and members motivated0 -
Well, have done a quick county up thing, and I think we have collected somewhere between 50 and 60 NSDs since marmite last updated on the 27th. There were 284 festering away in the Cauldron of Doom then, so I reckon we will finish the month on something like 350 NSDs? Can't be any more precise because there are still some people due to post in and anyway, my brain is half fried after doing three extremely busy night shifts in a row.
IGOR, I hope you have stocked up the freezer with all the ice creams marmite is going to have to give out! What have you got? Hmm, plain vanilla, pistachio and gherkin, Rocky road surprise (so that's why the A1M was closed off yesterday), lark' s vomit ripple, carrot and herring Neapolitan....only 2 vanilla, Igor? Oh, you thought people would prefer the other flavours so you got more of them?
Ok, guys, fight you for the vanilla ice cream....One life - your life - live it!0 -
Using my rules for August, finished with another NSD on the 31st to end with 8/10. Not great, but looking forward to a better month in September.0
